Captain Ivan was fantastic! He put us right on the fish. Several double hook-ups and a few triples! I think the longest we went without a bite was 15 minutes. An amazing day, looking forward to booking again in September for the big ones!

We had such a wonderful day and we feel lucky to be his penultimate charter before his second retirement. Thank you again Ivan! The fish, crab and shrimp were delicious and the kids still talk about the day.

Ivan is a great captain who took care of everything for us. Our team of inexperienced newb fishing folks still managed to catch a few 4-5lb Spring Salmon on this wonderful sunny Saturday afternoon in August and net in about 60 spot prawns! I didn’t realize that spot prawns are year-round when recreational fishing! Just be aware that when you go for spot prawns, it is not the same spot for the big fish and it’s better to leave the traps in for a full-day trip rather than a half-day trip… So if you’re there mostly to fish, maybe skip out on the spot prawns for half-day trips. Also, Chinooks are allowed only after Sept, we missed out on that by a few days. Hopefully next year!

Captain Ivan is a great guide with lots of experience and fun stories. He’ll explain every step of the way if you’re a newcomer and is patient, caring, and attentive. He is willing to accommodate whatever you want to do whether it’s crabbing, fishing, spot prawn fishing, and more.

We had a great time with Captain Ivan and definitely will come back in the future!
